Chapter 24: Problem 37
The dielectric to be used in a parallel-plate capacitor has a dielectric constant of 3.60 and a dielectric strength of 1.60 \(\times\) 10\(^7\) V>m. The capacitor is to have a capacitance of 1.25 \(\times\) 10\(^{-9}\) F and must be able to withstand a maximum potential difference of 5500 V. What is the minimum area the plates of the capacitor may have?
